In my opinion, the most valuable product offering in our self defense product repertoire is the Extreme College Safety Kit. Why you ask? Our college students are vulnerable to various crimes. Many times these “kids” are targeted for robbery, assault and sexual assault.

According to The US Department of Education’s (DOE) Campus Safety and Security Data Analysis Cutting Tool, there were more than 5000 Forcible Sex Offenses reported on US Campuses in 2013. Robbery, Aggravated Assault and Burglary are also prevalent on US College Campuses. With nearly 16,000 burglaries, 2300 aggravated assaults, and 1600 robberies. Trend data from DOE shows a 46.76% increase in Forcible Sex Offenses reported on US Campuses from 2011 to 2013!

The Extreme College Safety Kit is a unique collection of self defense products designed to keep college students protected in every situation. The package includes four different pepper spray products; a disguised pepper spray that looks like lipstick, an auto-visor model, a key-chain unit and a personal size. The drowsy driver Nap Alarm is worn around the ear and designed to sound an alarm if you “nod off” while driving. The high decibel personal alarm will get much needed attention in an emergency. The door stop alarm and motion alert will secure an apartment or dorm room. The book diversion safe provides a place to hide away valuables. The cell phone light provides a nice, bright LED flashlight.

This package comes with a demonstration and training DVD. A quick demo shows you how to correctly use each product. Additionally, six special safety reports are included and provide both education and awareness to topics such as: college safety, rape reports, dorm or apartment safety, roommates, safe dating and college preparation for parents.

Every college student would be better off with this collection of self defense items. You can order the Extreme College Safety Kit or get more information HERE.

When it comes to self defense, how prepared are you to protect yourself? For most of us, the answer is a resounding ‘NO’ and you are either completely ‘unprotected’ or ‘under-protected’. We tend to live with a false sense of security. After all, it’s difficult to imagine something bad happening until it does. The keyword is ‘false’ because FBI crime reports reveal that more than 1 in 4 will fall victim to crime. Nearly thirty percent will be targeted which means that the likelihood of crime affecting you either directly or indirectly is nearly inevitable. The most recent FBI Crime Clock statistics for 2013 proves that one violent crime occurred every 27.1 seconds while one property crime occurred every 3.7 seconds. Think about that for a moment.

Now is the time to take a good look at your personal and home security situation. For many, a handgun is not a good alternative. The potential liability that comes with using a handgun for self-defense is huge. The thought of potentially killing another human being is too much for most. Instead, women and men alike are opting for non-lethal self defense options. These options consist of product lines such as Mace pepper spray, stun devices, and personal alarms. The increased popularity of non-lethal products stems from the proven effectiveness combined with overall safety.

Police officers are trained to deploy pepper spray and tasers as a first line of defense because it works! When you discharge a pepper spray, the affects are nearly instant but non-lethal. When used correctly, pepper spray allows you to stop an attacker from a safe distance. Pepper spray and Mace products are legal for use in all states, however, a few have restrictions. The C2 Taser is the most advanced non-lethal weapon on the market today. The C2 Taser features the exact same technology as it’s law enforcement counterpart. The C2 is legal in most states, but users must pass a felony background check prior to purchase. Personal alarms have one purpose and that’s to get attention. Personal alarms emit a high decibel sound at the push of a button.

Bourbon Street is synonymous with fun, partying, and good times. Unfortunately, in recent weeks, this tourist magnet is making news for all the wrong reasons. Violent crime has locals and tourists alike taking notice. According to crimemappings.com the French Quarter has been a dangerous place to party, citing 13 assaults, 12 armed robberies in and around Bourbon Street during the second week of December. Throughout the month of December 2014, the area within a one-mile radius of Bourbon Street saw 61 Assaults and 36 Robberies!

Residents and workers are on alert because of the violent crime increase in the French Quarter. A group of locals are spreading awareness by hanging signs throughout the Quarter that read “Caution Walk in Large Groups – We Love NOPD – We Just Need More.” The signs are designed to warn of potential crime and to encourage people to enjoy the Quarter in the safety of a large group. This is excellent advice, as statistics show the likelihood of becoming a violent crime victim is drastically reduced when you’re accompanied by a group of 3 or more.

Unfortunately, many residents and workers don’t have the luxury of congregating in groups. A highly effective alternative includes personal protection items like Mace and Pepper spray. When used correctly, these non-lethal devices are proven to stop an aggressive attacker almost immediately. A blast of pepper spray to the face of an assailant goes to work within seconds. First, it causes the capillaries in the eyes to swell – this causes temporary blindness. The threat posed by an attacker who can’t see is greatly reduced. Respiratory inflammation and difficulty breathing help to take the “fight” out of a potential attacker. Mace or pepper spray hurts. The pain to the eyes has been described as “excruciating” and left untreated the effects last about 30 minutes. Self-defense sprays allow users the ability to stop a potential threat quickly and safely from a distance of 8 feet or more.

Simply put, pepper spray makes sense as a self-defense weapon. The prevalence of crime is on the increase throughout the United States. In the five minutes or so it takes you to read this article 3 women will fall victim to sexual assault! We are all vulnerable. How will you protect yourself?

Pepper spray is an effective self-defense weapon that is both legal and non-lethal. Many of us are not comfortable carrying a handgun and even if you are, the legal liabilities can be life changing. In every self-defense scenario you will be better off with pepper spray than without.

Pepper spray acts as the “great equalizer” as it provides a smaller, physically weaker person the ability to defend themselves against a larger, stronger attacker. Pepper spray provides the ability to stop an attacker from a distance of 8-12 feet. In a self-defense situation, distance equals safety, so the ability to neutralize a potential attack is priceless.

The effects of pepper spray go to work almost immediately. The most aggressive attacker will feel the effects within seconds. Even individuals under the influence of pain masking drugs are affected. Spraying someone in the face with pepper spray causes the eyes to involuntarily close shut and the capillaries to swell causing temporary blindness. Even if an attacker can’t feel pain, they are much less dangerous if they can’t see.

Pepper spray goes to work on the respiratory system and wreaks havoc on breathing. The active ingredients cause inflammation within the respiratory system which makes breathing difficult. If you can’t breathe you can’t fight. Pepper spray is extremely painful when sprayed into the eyes, nose and mouth. The pain has been compared to having shards of glass in the eyes.

With any self-defense weapon, it’s important to practice and become familiar with your device. Pepper spray is available in different spray patterns and formulas, each with its own set of pro’s and con’s. If you opt for non-lethal self-defense you’ll be much better off in every scenario with pepper spray than without.

Have you seen the statistics on home burglary? Many people consider them alarming, and we don’t mean that as a pun. Yes, security alarms are effective home security devices, but they are only one of many. Back to the statistics.

“The FBI tells us that a home burglary happens every 13 seconds in the United States and is the most common threat to your home.

Police also tell us that 90% of all burglaries can be prevented.

Burglars steal $2,119 worth of goods and another $2,000 worth of damage, on average, to every victimized home.

Police usually only clear 13% of all reported burglaries due to lack of witnesses or physical evidence.

In 2010, there were an estimated 2,159,878 burglaries. They increased 2.0 percent in 2010 compared to the 2001 estimate.”

home security devices

If those statistics don’t convince you that you need home security devices around your home, then you need to think again.

Most home security devices provide simple, inexpensive and yet very effective home security. The product referred to above puts out a 110 dB alarm when the protected door or window is opened. It can provide protection for doors and windows, even sliding glass doors and cabinets that holds potentially dangerous products such as drugs, or cleaning products. It is only 2 ½ inches long and comes with alarm batteries and adhesive tape to secure it to the door or window.

Home security devices should only be considered a last line of defense to prevent burglars from getting into your home. You should take some other steps to preclude the burglar from even thinking about breaking in. Those might include eliminating potential hiding places the burglars would use to conceal their whereabouts, installing some fake security cameras around the perimeter of your home and placing some signs in your front yard that warn of a vicious guard dog or of a home security system in place.

So the answer to the question “do you really need home security devices?” is yes absolutely, but only if you want to protect your home and the contents.

One of the most overlooked self defense items for women is this PAL keychain alarm with light. It is one of the most popular personal alarms, a.k.a. panic alarms, for women. It combines the two best deterrents against an attack: 130 dB ear piercing alarm and a bright flashing light. You can activate the alarm in two ways; first when the pin attached to the keychain is pulled, and second by pressing the alarm button on the top of the unit.

Personal alarms are effective self-defense items for women because they can alert people in your area that you may be in trouble and/or scare a potential assailant away. This particular panic alarm uses two AAA batteries that come with the unit and it is so small that it attaches to your keys easily.

Another inexpensive self-defense items for women is this Pepper Shot 10% concentration of oleoresin capsicum rated at 2 million Scoville heat units keychain pepper spray. It contains 10 half-second shots up to 10 feet away and represents one of the best values in self-defense items for women. It has a thumb lock safety actuator to prevent accidental discharge and includes a UV marking dye for assailant identification.

These are just two examples of self-defense items for women that we carry in our online store. We have a wide variety of other self-defense products including stun guns and batons. We also carry a good selection of home security products including window and door alarms as well as do it yourself home security systems. We also carry fake security cameras that are so realistic no one can tell the difference from the real thing.

We are proud to say that all of our products have a money 90 day money back guarantee. You also get a free product lifetime phone and email support system for questions or problems.

We will discuss why you should be using Mace for self defense in today’s post, but first some background information.

Modern day history of pepper spray started in 1973 when the FBI “worked to develop weapons grade material in the 80s”. In 1994, the N.Y.P.D. decided to adopt pepper spray as an anti-personnel weapon. So you can see the history of modern day pepper spray is relatively new.

The same ingredient that makes major topical arthritis creams so effective-capsaicin-usually at only 0.1% (most sprays are at least 10%)-is the major ingredient in all pepper sprays. It is a concentration of oleoresin capsicum which is the resin of cayenne pepper-one of the hottest peppers in the world. Other ingredients in pepper sprays can include CN teargas and a UV marking dye for assailant identification.

For any person who has been in the military, part of your basic training is being sprayed with pepper spray. The same is true for anyone who wishes to become a federal, state or local police officer. Getting to know how pepper spray feels is part of your training. It is not fun!

Here’s why you should be using Mace for self-defense.

The victim’s eyes clamp shut-not just because of the excessive tearing-but also the dilation of the capillaries.

It makes breathing difficult with immediate inflammation and swelling of the throat restricting the airway. Uncontrollable coughing and gasping for air is common.

And of course, the most famous is the pain caused by contact with exposed skin. Does it ever hurt!

There is also the sensation of the loss of balance and disorientation. Using Mace for self-defense is nasty stuff!

When your self-defense is on the line using mace for self-defense makes all kinds of sense. It is effective, legal, relatively inexpensive and Mace brand has the biggest selection and widest variety of pepper sprays in the industry.

Mace Maritime pepper gel is a good example. It uses a 1.4% major capsaicinoids formula that can fire 25 feet. The pistol grip canister contains 330 grams and can empty in six seconds.

There are thousands of personal security products available in the marketplace today. Many of them are the nonlethal self-defense items that are booming in popularity. A handgun continues to be the most popular lethal self-defense product. For reasons that we have discussed ad nauseam, many people do not want a lethal product in their house or on their person. It is just part of the reason why nonlethal self-defense products have become so popular.

Last week I saw one of my neighbors while we were gassing up at our local Costco store. She had a keychain in her hand and attached to it was a pepper spray. She reminded me that I had given it to her two years ago. She carries it with her wherever she goes.

She told me that her little keychain pepper spray made her feel safer and more in charge of her life, instilling a feeling of confidence.

The fact is that pepper spray, when used correctly, can be the “great equalizer”! The average male is some 5 inches taller and 30 pounds heavier than the average female. The difference in strength is typically significant as well. Pepper spray can flatten an assailant that is within the firing range almost instantly. Typical effects include difficulty breathing, inflammation of the mucus membranes, coughing and discharge, burning of the skin, involuntary shutting of the eyes and temporary blindness. The most valuable effect by far is the temporary blindness and involuntary closing of the eyes. Couple that with restricted breathing, inflammation and severe pain and you have an excellent personal security product capable of saving your life.

Our online store offers a big selection of colors, styles and price ranges from six of the most popular manufacturers of pepper sprays. We also carry many other non-lethal personal defense items.

When it comes to pepper spray or any defense item, it must be quickly accessible when you need it and you never know when you need it. So get in the habit of having it with you and ready wherever you go. Law enforcement officers carry pepper spray on their utility belt as their first line of self-defense. Why shouldn’t you?

By the time you finish reading this article an average of 8 violent crimes will have taken place throughout the United States. Every 19 seconds in America, a violent crime is committed. The majority of crimes are perpetrated against women. You have likely seen some of the statistics. College coeds have a 20% likelihood of becoming the victim of an attempted or completed sexual assault during their college career. Nearly one in four women involved in a domestic relationship are abused physically. Overall, 20% of all women, will be the target of violence at some point in their lifetime. We are very sorry about that, but it is just a fact!

That is why so many self-defense weapon manufacturers such as Taser International, Streetwise, Guard Dog, Stun Master and many others all manufacture female self defense weapons.

One of the most popular female self-defense weapons are Mace brand pepper sprays. Mace brand has been around for over 30 years making defensive sprays that set the industry standard. Mace brand pepper sprays have perhaps the widest assortment of spray patterns and formulas in the marketplace today and our online store carries them all.

Mace defensive sprays were one of the first to have a flip top safety cap that has been copied by many other manufacturers since then. They are still one of the few that has the unique contoured grip that assures that you are firing in the right direction. Each Mace pepper spray is submersed in water to test for leaks before it’s packaged to ensure quality control and 100% guaranteed firing the first and every time.

If you are in the market for female self-defense weapons, our online store has one of the best selections of not only Mace brand but many other top line manufacturers.

You owe it to yourself and to the women in your life to make sure that they are protected with one of our female self-defense weapons. An assault can occur anywhere and at any time, so it’s necessary to be ready! Female self-defense weapons such as pepper sprays and stun guns are a good start.

If you are the parent of a current or soon to be, female college student, then you need to listen up. The University experience is supposed to be about growth and development but it’s also a place where an alarming number of female students will become victims of a sexual assault on campus.

A US Justice Department report titled “The Sexual Victimization of College Students” found that over 20 percent of college women are the victim of rape or attempted rape each year in the United States. The likelihood that a female college student will be the victim of an attempted or completed rape is 1 in 20.

Freshmen and sophomore women face a much higher prevalence of sexual assault then upperclassmen. In fact, an article titled “An Examination of Sexual Violence Against College Women” reports that of the college females reporting sexual assault over 80% occurred as underclassmen.

Young women living in a Sorority House are three times more likely to be a sex assault victim then their peers living off campus. Females living on-campus were at a higher risk, nearly two times that of those who live off-campus. This is according to a report published in the “Journal of Studies on Alcohol”.

Sadly less than 5 percent of attempted or completed rapes are reported. This is according to the DOJ report “The Sexual Victimization of College Women”. Many victims likely feel it was their fault. Others may feel no one will believe them. Still others, fear retaliation from the assailant.

Truth is, sexual assault is one of the most under reported crimes in America. If a sexual act was not consensual, meaning that the victim did not consent or have the capacity to consent, then sexual assault or rape occurred. The only way to reduce the prevalence of these horrific crimes is through awareness and education. It starts with you and me.

Campus Safety Pepper Gel by Sabre offers peace of mind for students and parents.

Nonlethal personal protection weapons are among the most popular products sold because assaults on men and women have been steadily increasing over the years. Nonlethal personal protection weapons provide a level of self-defense that is unparalleled by any other product including the lethal handgun.

At last count there were an estimated 310 million guns in the United States including 110 million rifles, 86 million shotguns and as many as 114 million handguns. The statistics come from an organization called GunPolicy.org.

It is unknown how many stun devices and pepper sprays there are in the United States because there is no registration or licensing required as there are with guns. So owning nonlethal personal protection weapons is far easier than with a lethal handgun.

Nonlethal personal protection weapons are not only easier to obtain, they are also less expensive than the lethal variety which is another reason why civilians purchase them.

Sabre brand produces pepper spray personal protection weapons that are used by law enforcement around the United States. The Crossfire MK-4 model is a good example of the quality products that they make. It contains 32 shots of half-second duration. The ballistic stream spray pattern reduces blowback and/or cross-contamination and can spray up to 20 feet away. It has a five year shelf life which is longer than most competitive pepper sprays. The expiration date is stamped on the bottom of the canister.

What makes this Crossfire Mk-4 model so popular is the fact that can be fired from any angle to increase the probability of acquiring a target successfully. It is also one of the hottest pepper sprays available with a 1.33% of major Capsaicinoid concentration.

When you are looking for personal protection weapons, Sabre brand Crossfire MK-3 and MK-4 models are among the most effective because of the flexibility in target acquisition. In a dynamic situation-the kind you and police officers are more likely to encounter-a suspect or assailant is unlikely to be standing still. Having the ability to hit a moving target from any angle will give you the edge you need to defend yourself.

If you stop and think about it, there only so many ways you can break into a home if you’re a burglar. Doors and windows are about it. The sad matter of the fact is that the Justice Department tells us that 30% of all burglaries happen through unlocked doors and windows. So it just makes sense to us that if you lock all your doors and windows, you’re going to be way ahead of your neighbors when it comes to home security.

Home security devices for doors like a simple door stop alarm are a great way to start. It works on the age old principle of providing a wedge underneath the door to prevent it from opening. If anyone tries to open the door by force, a 120 dB alarm will sound. The alarm shuts off when pressure is released from the door stop plate.

It uses a simple 9 volt battery to power the alarm. The movement sensor on top of the door stop alarm as adjustable sensitivity. As with other home security devices for doors, the simple doorstop alarm requires no installation.

Most burglars are young kids out to prove something to fellow gang members. They are committing this crime for the first or second time according to statistics. Simple home security devices for doors or windows, a.k.a. burglar alarms, will stop most of them dead in their tracks.

Our online store has a great selection of home security devices for doors and windows as well as a huge selection of fake security cameras and other home security products. But our specialty is nonlethal self-defense products for men and women.

The recent abduction and murder of Arkansas real estate agent Beverly Carter has agents everywhere living in fear for their safety. Carter vanished Thursday after showing a home in the small rural community of Scott, located in the central part of Arkansas.

Her accused killer has since been arrested and charged with capital murder, robbery and kidnapping. When asked by reporters why Carter was targeted, Lewis responded: “Because she was just a woman that worked alone — a rich broker,” The Associated Press reported.

This was a tragic, senseless murder that could have been prevented. I implore every Realtor in the United States to carry a pepper spray (at the very least) with them for self defense. Pepper spray is inexpensive and very effective at stopping an attack. The effects are almost instant and causes severe inflammation of the membranes, eyes are swollen shut by the excessive tearing, the respiratory tract becomes inflamed and breathing is difficult, the capillaries of the eyes swell causing temporary blindness and there is severe, coughing, choking and wheezing, all of which will disable an assailant for up to 45 minutes.

Our sincere condolences to the Carter family. We pray that you will find closure and peace through GOD.

We have been in the business of supplying personal security and personal safety products for men and women for over a decade. One of the most frequently asked questions of us is ‘what are the best self defense products for women?’

There is no simple answer because there are several products that are very popular. In today’s world men and women are assaulted more frequently than ever before and women are assaulted nine times more often than men so women need self-defense products more frequently than men do.

That is one reason why so many self-defense product manufacturers make products that are geared towards the female market-items that are smaller, come in pink and are easy to carry.

One of the best self-defense products for women is the line of Mace brand defensive sprays. Pepper sprays have been around in one way or another since ancient Chinese warriors threw bags of hot spices at their enemies. Only since the 1980s, have modern days pepper sprays been in vogue.

Mace brand has been a leader in providing the best self-defense products for women for over three decades. They have set the standards for:

Quality-by testing each product before it’s packaged to ensure reliability,
Dependability-after three decades of research and constant improvement and
Innovation-the first to use a flip top safety cap, the first to use pepper gel and the first to use a finger grip to assist in aiming.

Each Mace brand pepper spray has an expiration date stamped on the bottom of the canister to ensure that the product is functioning. They were the only manufacturer that made products specifically for states that have restrictions on pepper sprays.

Mace brand pepper sprays are just one of the many best self-defense products for women that we carry in our online store.

Very few things stop burglars in their tracks better than home security products. Some examples of these are security cameras, fake security cameras, home security systems, motion activated alarms and window and door alarms.

When a burglar is out casing a neighborhood-looking for homes that are vulnerable-he looks for signs of home security products. Is there a sign in the front yard that warns of a vicious guard dog, for example, or a sign that warns of a home security system in place or does he see security/surveillance cameras in place on the property?

The number one thing that will stop of burglar from getting in your front door is a sound of a barking dog which is why this barking dog alarm is one of the most effective home security products available in the industry.

It uses radar wave-sense technology to sense motion through wood, plastic, glass and cement up to as much as 12 feet away and more through open areas. The detection angle is 154 degrees horizontal which is more than enough to cover the front of the house. Both the volume and sensitivity levels are adjustable. A wireless remote control can arm and disarm the system.
Here’s How It Works

barking dog alarm

When an intruder approaches, the radar wave-sense technology picks up movement and the sound of an angry barking dog starts. As the intruder gets closer, the sound of the barking increases in intensity frightening away the burglar.

In study after study home security products such as the barking dog alarm have been proven to be a highly effective deterrent to home burglary.

This home security product operates on standard AC power with battery backup in case of power goes off. You can choose between a barking dog alarm and a chime to announce visitors or customers in a store. This barking dog requires no training or feeding making it completely maintenance free.
